SARA: Search And Rescue Aid and Surveillance using High EGNSS Accuracy
✓ SARA is a semi-autonomous system composed by a tethered drone and its hangar, tightlycoupled onboard a vessel through a strong kevlar cable, used for power supply and datatransmission;
✓ Its main advantage is to deploy in a very short time a Virtual Pylon up to 100 meters above thevessel for persistent flight operations in night and day conditions.
✓ SARA solution is a clear response coming from institutional stakeholders needs, requestinga technological support for S.A.R. operation to the increasing migratory flows, in theMediterranean Sea.
✓ Purpose of SARA project is to design, prototype and start to commercialize a tailored solutionfor niche S.A.R. market and in other side markets.

RPAS
extended area
normal area
✓ Extended surveillance area (RPAS area);
✓ Cost-effective solution compared to Helicopter operations;
✓ Identification and geo tagging of floating objects or hot objects in the darkness;
✓ Shorter surveillance time;
✓ More reliable surveillance and fast deployment solution;
✓ Continuity of Service during S.A.R. operations;
✓ Easier Take-off/Landing procedures;

Test activities with Italian Coast Guard (Guardia Costiera Napoli) Needs
✓ A preliminary proof-of-concept of SARA, for detection of survivors in the sea wasimplemented in July 2015 and tested on board a class 200 vessel of Italian Coast Guard
✓ Tests were performed with a small drone for CONOPS verification;
✓ A low resolution thermic sensor (FLIR Lepton, 80x60 pixels) was used to validate themathematical algoritm (Mixed Pixel model) in an environment with a low thermicgradient;
✓ Onboard the vessel thermal / optical video stream was available in real time to terminalwith software elaboration.

✓ Continuity of service during S.A.R. operations;
✓ Persistent Surveillance during navigation;
✓ Power over cable for extended flight time operations;
✓ Secure data download from payload through cable up to 200 Mbps;
✓ C2 link data security & integrity through cable
o (X/S/C Band Vessel’s Radar, VHF distress equipment)
o Spoofing rejection
✓ Physical constraint to limit the RPAS envelope of flight, easing authorization requests;
✓ Mechanical aid for landing
Tethered cable added value
